I am currently employed at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust as a Clinical Trials Data Manager in Cambridge Cancer Trials Centre. I managed the data for our Breast cancer trials as well as few Gynae/Ovarian cancer trials. As a data manager, I am responsible in gathering, analysing and storing clinical trials data to a high standard. I make sure that I communicate with the clinician for any data discrepancies and I respond to data queries in a timely manner. I have also learned to communicate effectively with the trial external sponsors, peers at work, and the management team. Effective communication does not only focus on the ability to speak the language, rather, it also includes comprehensive skills, ability to relay accurate information in a friendly and courteous manner and making sure to listen effectively to any details provided. Prior to this, I worked as a Clinic Administrator in the Breast Unit; Contact Centre Agent still under Addenbrooke's Hospital, as well as contact centre companies in the Philippines.
All previous roles included data entry and management that can be transferrable to this new role. I also have good working knowledge on Microsoft office such as Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint. I am a team player and can work independently and with less supervision. I can easily be trained, open to challenges and a fast learner. Additionally, having been employed in CUH Foundation Trust for more than 5 years now has given me better skill set that I can positively apply in this new role soon.
I have always wanted to work in an environment that would allow me to showcase my capabilities. As a graduate of Diploma in Information Technology, I have more than adequate computer skills which I believe is essential in today's fast - paced environment. I am adept to multi - tasking and I always ensure to prioritise the workload that needs to be prioritised in order to meet the expected outcome or result. I also have sound knowledge of data entry and data management based on my previous roles. I have had few trainings completed within my current role that has given me better understanding on the principles and foundation about data management. Furthermore, the exceptional trainings and experiences I gained working in few of the Business Process Outsource (BPO) companies in the Philippines, as well as my previous and current work experiences in the CUH Trust can be an ideal preparation for any future career progressions.
Moreover, as I progressed to quite different roles outside my comfort zone, I learned to become more effective in managing data or information and making sure they are handled with quality. I am efficient and can easily be trained to make sure I can perform well with any tasks given. As a matter of fact, I have been working collaboratively with some new member of the team and I have given them some trainings and inputs to help everyone perform the job well. I conduct weekly catch up meetings with research nurses to discuss any outstanding data and assessment for patients - this definitely helped us in making sure all trial patients have their assessment and treatment in place, thus, allowing to gather data and store in EDC accurately.
I always look forward to developing new skills as I transition and progress to a new role and I always ensure to provide quality service to patients, clients and the entire staff of the organisation. Providing excellent service is one of the most important things that can set business apart from the others of its kind, whilst showing positive traits in the work environment.
